Daily Book Sale
Did you know that the Classics Library has a daily book sale? Books priced ridiculously low are tastefully displayed in a bookcase to the left of our New Books display in the Cubby Hole. Please check them out for serendipitous discoveries 9:00 am–4:00 pm M-F and feed the piggy bank using exact change and tag the book title(s) on the printed list next to the piggy bank, so that we know when to remove the title(s) from the list and empty the piggy! The funds received from these sales supplement our pitifully meager office supply budget which pays for the pencils and note papers we place throughout the Classics Library, the staplers, the tape, the scissors you use, so we are most grateful for your support! Whereas the Classics Library has a generous budget for books thanks to an endowed fund by Louise Taft and her husband, former classics chair, William Semple, the Classics Library has virtually no monies for infrastructure -- staffing, furniture, digitization, technical equipment, etc. -- so we are most grateful also for monetary donations. Please contact the Classics Librarian (lindaura@ucmail.uc.edu, 513-556-1316) if you wish to contribute to our gift fund. Donors will receive special invitations to our events and exhibitions. Thank you!
